Buckley, but it is written below the address for Peter Rodawaker. ***Written below Thomas Doan. Apparently goes with the address for Wm. Buckley. Could be William Stolls or Stoels. ^Could be Thomas Dvan, Doan. ^^The two ages are squeezed into the same cell on the spreadsheet - 5 mos is written above the line "11" is written on the line. There is a line joining Thomas Doan with "5 mos", so "11" must be associated with William Buckley. ^^^In this cell, there are ditto marks above the words "St. Joseph Asylum" written on the line. Judging from these positions, the 5 mos old was sent to St. Mary's (copying the entry above on the page) and the "11" child was sent to St. Joseph. *^The bottom of the page is torn and these items cannot be read. *~This note goes with these thee children. ^~This could be Subers or Siebers. ~Could be Chisholm, but looks more like Chisholin. ~~The page is torn and the date is missing.
